I made an incorrect statement. GS marking is not mandatory, but compliance is mandatory if the equipment is covered by the Equipment Safety Law. However, you will find that many customers will demand the GS mark.
Richard Woods ---------- From: WOODS, RICHARD Sent: Thursday, January 18, 2001 1:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: GS & N151 The GS mark is mandatory for all equipment covered by the Equipment Safety Law. The equipment must comply with all applicable national regulations including worker health regulations. For example, PCs used as workstations must comply with EN60950 as well as the German ergonomic standard ZH1 which has requirements for the keyboard and monitor and the contrast and reflections of the surfaces of the equipment. Any of the TUVs will determine and apply the applicable national regulations as part of the TUV GS certification.

You can find more information about it from your local TUV office.
